Three Knocks: An Atlantic Ghost Story

Forerunners that knock before a death. A fish that spoke the language of the dead. A phantom ship still burning on the same stretch of water two hundred years on. And a woman who walks a beach made of bones. These are the ghost stories of Canada's Atlantic coast, where the sea takes what it wants and sometimes sends it back.
